Meet our Pets Available for Adoption<br />

who will be turning 8 next<br />
month! He has been with the<br />
same owner since he was three<br />
months old. Stormy has very<br />
regular habits. He sleeps when<br />
his person is sleeping and wakes<br />
up with his person for a treat before<br />
he naps again. He is good<br />
with all ages but doesn’t like to<br />
be held or picked up. Very independent<br />
and very clean! He will<br />
often come over and cuddle near<br />
his person and leave as he wishes.<br />
He is a beautiful cat with remarkable<br />
coloring. Stormy doesn’t like<br />
dogs and is better one on one.<br />
He is also neutered and fully vaccinated.<br />
Looking for a forever<br />
home with someone who will give<br />
him the love he has always had.<br />
Meet Marcia Mae<br />
Marcia Mae aka Monkey is a<br />
sweet 8 year old, 7 pound tortie<br />
who gets an A+ for perfect eating<br />
and litterbox habits. She loves<br />
endless pats and scratches and<br />
Pet Corner<br />
prefers lounging over zooming<br />
and jumping. Marcia Mae will<br />
hide for a day or so then will be<br />
your best friend if you lure her<br />
out with a catnip toy. She stays<br />
silent (even during car rides or<br />
circling her food bowl) aside from<br />
a healthy purr and a nightly brief<br />
burst of meows for no reason.<br />
She was originally rescued from<br />
a hoarding situation, then lost an<br />
eye but doesn’t seem to know it<br />
and is very well adjusted.<br />
Meet Charlotte<br />
Charlotte is a super friendly<br />
medium haired tuxedo between<br />
eight and nine years old. She<br />
was surrendered to us because<br />
her owners new grandson came<br />
to live with them and is allergic<br />
to cats. She has the firm<br />
belief that people are there to<br />
cuddle with and pat her. Sitting<br />
on your lap and purring at you<br />

suits her just fine. However, she<br />
also thinks that toys are lots of<br />
fun to chase and bat and play.<br />
When seeking food or attention,<br />
or displeased with a car ride, she<br />
becomes quite loquacious.<br />

Agree not Free<br />
Adopting a kitty or dog requires<br />
a commitment to them<br />
and AGREEING to this through<br />
the adoption process saves so<br />
many lives in the long run.<br />
Free is never free. You may<br />
take a FREE kitten from an unspayed<br />
friends cat without much<br />
thought regarding the true commitment<br />
and financial burden.<br />
Consider how much it will cost to<br />
Exceptional Short Term Rehab!<br />
spay them or neuter them, vaccinate<br />
them, treat them for fleas<br />
and ticks, possibly microchip<br />
them for recovery if lost, test or<br />
treat for illnesses like feline leukemia,<br />
upper respiratory viruses or<br />
FIV. Are you ready for this FREE<br />
cat and if so great, but expect to<br />
spend up to $300-$500 to do the<br />
right thing as a new pet owner.<br />
You could however, take that<br />
cute little kitten home and do<br />
nothing. That would truly be free<br />
until the cat sprays in your house,<br />
as an un-neutered male will do<br />
then you will regret doing nothing.<br />
When the cat becomes very<br />
sickly and needs emergent medical<br />
care you will again regret you<br />
did nothing. When the cat gets<br />
out of the house and goes missing,<br />
and may or may not return,<br />
the stress of missing the cat followed<br />
by potential pregnancy or<br />
injury will once again make you<br />
regret you did nothing.<br />
So think “agree not free” and<br />
let professionals guide you to the<br />
right pet for you, educate you on<br />
what pet ownership entails and<br />
help you get started on the right<br />
foot.<br />
